While we tried as much as possible to avert major disasters in the past 48hours, we can’t but be grateful to patriotic officers within the @PoliceNG structures that allowed the Spirit of the Yuletide influence their actions. We have recorded far less casualties in 3years.

We are however concerned about the 100s of @PoliceNG officers dismissed for desertion. We are concerned about the selection process and this will be lookied into as we proceed. The low record of oppression, abduction & extortion of our youth this Christmas shows we can do more.

This doesn’t take away the fact that citizens have a who,e lot of thinking to do in their decision towards the realignment of leadership to purpose in 2019. All our institutions are under great pressure & stress by the enemies of our democracy. We are all Victims.

It is not the time to allow unpatriotic felons distract us from the major issues. Articles about who should not be president in my honest opinion is a distraction from the core referendum against evil and chaotic leadership in 2019. #NeverAgain

If going by corruption allegations & the ongoing heists cum brigandage, there shouldn’t be a country now but an all out bloody revolution. Ours is a civilized republic where the rules of engagement must differ from the barbaric approaches that have plunged many nations into chaos

The same reason we fought the prejudices and discrimination against Distinguished @YeleSowore when he was delisted from debating by #NESG#BON folks who are clearly ingratiating themselves with the status quo and showing loyalty.

The same way we have sent stern words out to organizers of major town halls across universities not to join the bandwagon of unconscionable practitioners seeking to payback any candidate with exclusion based on lame excuses. This only shows you don’t understand what is at stake.

On our part we will not be participating in any program towards 2019 that discriminates against any candidate. Every candidate MUST be given a chance to debate and participate having qualified based on popular demands via polls. Any other undemocratic criteria shows bias.

When we join multitudes to do evil, we contribute to the ills buffeting us as a nation. We become culpable in the wanton deaths of the innocent owing the failure of the structures of the state across board. Our issue is majorly the dearth of visionary & competent leadership.

I speak for Next of kins of our fallen heroes in the Police, Army, Navy, AirForce, DSS & Civil Defense. Most of them don’t have the luxury of Protest as bound by regimented rules. Our informed action is the only way their prayers can be answered. This is beyond sentiments.

In a few weeks we will be making a major decisionthat will determine the future of Nigeria and the kind of legacy we will bequeath to our children. It is not a reality TV show. You are not picking a saint, messiah or friend but choosing between Freedom and Continuous Oppression.

I have an opinion and reservation about all the candidates but most times when given a choice between being right and being kind...it is wise to be kind. Every candidate deserves a fair chance based on meritocracy & competence. The good news is that we have choices & no excuses.

Vote your conscience and avoid distractions. We all have seen how far we have gone in 3 years as compared to how much Ethiopia achieved in months. We have lost fellow citizens who don’t deserve to die and most importantly we have lost patriots & businesses. Think deep.

Politicians will learn nothing when rewarded with more opportunities to ruin when they have clearly shown morbid incompetence and negligence. A referendum is proper every now and then. We have done this before and we can do it again. The chaos must not continue. #Referendum2019

....End of Celestial Observation...

Happy New Year

Just close your eyes and imagine how much we all can achieve under a credible and competent leadership, who won’t gun you down/pluck reasons from the sky to jail you illegally against court orders for protesting. Thinks of the quality of security, Economy & jobs for All. #Think

As you all can see the unconscionable display of my client like a chattel in a digital form of an unethical invitation to treat. Do recall that In 2003, Nigeria adopted the Child Rights Act to domesticate the Convention on the Rights of the Child.

The Children's Rights Act 2003 (CRA) was created to serve as a legal documentation and protection of Children rights and responsibilities in Nigeria. I won’t drag this too much. Do wish the daddy well as he packs for vacation in prison custody. #ResponsibleParenting

I strongly believe Tolu Ogunlesi would be fired. He has demonstrably outpaced Bashir Ahmad (his handler) in stupidity. These aberrations within the aberration have learnt nothing about the ever changing socio-political landscape. You don’t argue with facts...it reveals your folly

A beginner in StratComms knows that muddy waters are best left alone. Only an incurable idiot would plunge into a raging river with rage. All attempts to ameliorate the damage of Amaechi’s banters are in futility. You can’t counter facts with lies. U don’t control the narratives.

You only have one job and you failed at it. The knuckle-draggers within the thieving hub that hired you did so believing they hired their weakness but you have outdone them in foolishness. Because you loathe the trust so much, we’ll all watch as you sink deeper.

No man is infallible & none is incapable of cruelty. It’s dangerously incorrect to assume anyone can not hurt a fly. If there is any such predisposition then you have an entity that is absolutely a victim to anyone who is. Some hail evil because it agrees with an energy within.⛱

This is not a justification of evil or an excuse for bad behavior. It is simply the test of he strength of character and self respect. Respect people with the capability of great evil but got this under control than people who demonstrate their monstrosity for selfish gains.

But one who feign inability to be cruel is either mendacious or gravely naive. Such is emblematic of the weakest of all beings without an iota of capability of leadership. Those who guarantee peace are those who tame their monstrosity. I’m not a saint & will not pretend to be one

Tried Just Egg vegan egg. Real close on some dimensions, less so on others. 90% of the texture, 50% of the flavor profile. Very good aftertaste, which is crucial. Protein content comparable. Main barrier is now cost. It’s 2x equiv amt of organic free-range egg whites. Cc @vegan

I’ll be integrating this as much as possible. I think they did the smart thing and instead of trying for maximal simulation, they’ve gone for something with a close but distinct personality to egg. It might actually work better than egg in some use cases, like fried rice.

I think the trick will be the same as with tofu relative to meat: you may start using it as an egg substitute but you’ll likely start thinking of it as it’s own thing. Another protein for your kitchen. Egg’s cousin.

@thedicemechanic 1. Make sure you're using retreat rules that aren't suicide. I.e. don't stay in initiative!2. Make sure the players know the retreat rules. Remind them if needed.3. Make sure the players and characters know how hard foes are.

1. Make it not suck to run away2. Make the players aware of that3. Give them the info they need to judge if they should run away

But D&D doesn't do ANY OF THOSE THINGS.

@thedicemechanic Re: 1
It sucks to run away in D&D if the DM keeps things in initiative. You move and Dash, the enemies chase you, maybe have higher move, keep attacking you, you die. If they've got ranged attacks and spells, you're trading 30' lead for getting shot. It suuuuucks.

So, there's this lady in my church. Well, I think I may have a crush on her. She's very beautiful, average in height, fair in complexion and her shape, perfectly perfect, but her problem is that her shakara too much.

Thread 👇👇👇

As I entered the church auditorium today, an usher led me to a vacant sit at the middle row. To my surprise, the vacant sit was beside my crush. I praised the usher as I said to myself "today is my day of shooting shot".

To be honest, I wasn't able to focus on the sermon because I was constructing poet I was going to say to her. I had totally written a full book of how I was going to shoot my shot in my mind.

Issa thread. Pls retweet till it gets to whoever it needs to get to. Prior to my experience today, I have never been the type to call out people online, accuse @PoliceNG or Say SARS brutality or @PoliceNG_lagos brutality.
